10.4: Avoid the 10.4.9 Eject key activation delay
Authored by: j4m3z on Jan 08, '08 09:51:05AM
I'm using the latest Tiger version on a G5 and when I hit control+eject I get the shutdown dialog. On a G5 the force eject shortcut is option+eject, NOT control+eject. This works when the drive is empty and when the CD is paused or stopped, but not if it's playing.

Until I figured it out I thought the eject key was worn out too. The eject key is the top most corner key. Who hits this accidentally?

I think someone was thinking too much and created a problem where there wasn't one before.
